lyrics

When I open up my eyes I fight the urge to puke
And it really doesn't matter which way that you look
There's rape murder and death everywhere
The general masses just don't seem to care
So I try to hold onto what I know is right
Even when it seems there's no hope in sight
I'm sickened by reality and searching for escape
I just need something to ease the pain away

Cuz the world is fucked up and so are we
Just a downward spiral for humanity
I'm filled with rage and apathy
Cuz the world is fucked up and so are we

In one way or another we all numb our minds
Addictions come in many different types
Is it drugs religion or alcohol
Which crutch do you prefer to deal with the world
Now we're self medicating just to make it through the day
But we're all fucked up so its all in vain
So enraged and confused but I guess it's nothing new
In a world like this we all need a vice or two

Cuz the world is fucked up and so are we
Just a downward spiral for humanity
Cuz the world is fucked up and so are we
So I want to remain totally numb
